Interstrain Competition between Representatives of Indigenous Serotypes of Rhizobium trifolii.
The symbiotic characteristics of Rhizobium trifolii strains 1-01 and 2-01 were evaluated both individually and in various combinations on two cultivars (Mt. Barker and Woogenellup) of subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L.). Nodules were observed on day 8 independent of cultivar or strain. Cultivar differences were measured in nodulating efficiency by 1-01 since 54% of the primary nodul...
متن کاملInterference between Rhizobium meliloti and Rhizobium trifolii nodulation genes: genetic basis of R. meliloti dominance.
Transfer of an IncP plasmid carrying the Rhizobium meliloti nodFE, nodG, and nodH genes to Rhizobium trifolii enabled R. trifolii to nodulate alfalfa (Medicago sativa), the normal host of R. meliloti. Using transposon Tn5-linked mutations and in vitro-constructed deletions of the R. meliloti nodFE, nodG, and nodH genes, we showed that R. meliloti nodH was required for R. trifolii to elicit both...
متن کاملMolecular mechanism for loss of nodulation properties of Rhizobium trifolii.
Of 18 Rhizobium trifolii strains tested, 12 showed a high frequency of loss of nodulation ability after incubation in cultures at elevated temperatures. A correlation between loss of nodulation ability and loss of a large plasmid was demonstrated for R. trifolii. In some nonnodulating (Nod-) mutants, deletions occurred instead of total elimination of the plasmid molecule. The maximum curing eff...
متن کاملInfluence of Lime and Phosphate on Nodulation of Soil-Grown Trifolium subterraneum L. by Indigenous Rhizobium trifolii.
Previous research had identified four serogroups of Rhizobium trifolii indigenous to the acidic Abiqua soil (fine, mixed, mesic Cumulic Ultic Haploxeroll). Nodulation of subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L.) by two of the serogroups, 6 and 36, was differentially influenced by an application of CaCO(3) which raised the pH of the soil from 5.0 to 6.5. These studies were designed to char...
متن کاملStudies on the Aspartic Acid Decarboxylase of Rhizobium Trifolii.
Virtanen and Laine (1937) were the first to suggest the existence of an aspartic acid decarboxylase in Rhizobium trifolii, by the isolation of beta-alanine from a 47-day fermentation mash containing aspartic acid. Shive and Macow (1946), working with hydroxyaspartic acid as a competitive analogue for aspartic acid in the metabolism of Escherichia coli, found that the addition of this compound t...
